This patch adds a driver for a new 1000 Mbit ethernet NIC. It is
integrated on the south bridge that is used for our Cell Blades.
The code gets the MAC address from the Open Firmware device tree, so it
won't compile on platforms other than ppc64.
This is the first public release, so I don't expect the first version to
get merged, but I'd aim for integration within the 2.6.13 time frame.

Hi,
This patch contains the following hardware related fixes and other
miscellaneous bug fixes.
1. Updated the definition of single and double-bit ECC errors
2. Earlier we were allocating Transmit descriptors equal to
MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This was causing a boundary condition failure.
Need to allocate MAX_SKB_FRAGS+1 descriptors.
3. On some platforms(like PPC), pci_alloc_consistent() can return
a zero DMA address. Since the NIC cannot handle zero-addresses,
a workaround has been provided. Basically, we don't use such
that page. We reallocate.
4. If list_info allocation failed during driver load, check for
it during driver exit and return instead of trying to dereference
NULL pointer.
5. Increase the debug level of few non-critical debug messages.
6. Reset the card on critical ECC double errors only in case of
XframeI since XframeII can recover from such errors.
7. Print copyright message on driver load.
8. Bumped up the driver version no. to 2.0.8.1

Remove unnecessary status block accesses in tg3_msi(). Since MSI is
not shared, it is unnecessary to read the status block to determine if
there are any new events in the MSI handler. It is also unnecessary to
clear the updated bit in the status block.
Since the poll list is per-cpu, tg3_poll() will be scheduled to run on
the same CPU that received the MSI. Prefetches for the status block
and the next rx descriptors are added in tg3_msi() to improve their
access times when tg3_poll() runs.
In the non-MSI irq handlers, we need to check the status block because
interrupts may be shared. Only prefetches for the next rx descriptors
are added.

There's a number of problems with the way iseries_veth counts TX errors.
Firstly it counts conditions which aren't really errors as TX errors. This
includes if we don't have a connection struct for the other LPAR, or if the
other LPAR is currently down (or just doesn't want to talk to us). Neither
of these should count as TX errors.
Secondly, it counts one TX error for each LPAR that fails to accept the packet.
This can lead to TX error counts higher than the total number of packets sent
through the interface. This is confusing for users.
This patch fixes that behaviour. The non-error conditions are no longer
counted, and we introduce a new and I think saner meaning to the TX counts.
If a packet is successfully transmitted to any LPAR then it is transmitted
and tx_packets is incremented by 1.
If there is an error transmitting a packet to any LPAR then that is counted
as one error, ie. tx_errors is incremented by 1.

The iseries_veth driver often has multiple netdevices sending packets over
a single connection to another LPAR. If the bandwidth to the other LPAR is
exceeded, all the netdevices must have their queues stopped.
The current code achieves this by queueing one incoming skb on the
per-netdevice port structure. When the connection is able to send more packets
we iterate through the port structs and flush any packet that is queued,
as well as restarting the associated netdevice's queue.
This arrangement makes less sense now that we have per-connection TX timers,
rather than the per-netdevice generic TX timer.
The new code simply detects when one of the connections is full, and stops
the queue of all associated netdevices. Then when a packet is acked on that
connection (ie. there is space again) all the queues are woken up.

Currently the iseries_veth driver contravenes the specification in
Documentation/networking/driver.txt, in that if packets are not acked by
the other LPAR they will sit around forever.
This patch adds a per-connection timer which fires if we've had no acks for
five seconds. This is superior to the generic TX timer because it catches
the case of a small number of packets being sent and never acked.
This fixes a bug we were seeing on real systems, where some IPv6 neighbour
discovery packets would not be acked and then prevent the module from being
removed, due to skbs lying around.

The iseries_veth driver can attach to multiple vlans, which correspond to
multiple net devices. However there is only 1 connection between each LPAR,
so the connection structure may be shared by multiple net devices.
This makes module removal messy, because we can't deallocate the connections
until we know there are no net devices still using them. The solution is to
use ref counts on the connections, so we can delete them (actually stop) as
soon as the ref count hits zero.
This patch fixes (part of) a bug we were seeing with IPv6 sending probes to
a dead LPAR, which would then hang us forever due to leftover skbs.

This patch makes veth_init_connection() and veth_destroy_connection()

we call veth_module_cleanup(), however this will oops because we call
driver_unregister() before we've called driver_register(). I've never seen
this actually happen though.
So instead we explicitly call veth_destroy_connection() for each connection,
any that have been set up will be deallocated.

Due to a logic bug, once promiscuous mode is enabled in the iseries_veth
driver it is never disabled.
The driver keeps two flags, promiscuous and all_mcast which have exactly the
same effect. This is because we only ever receive packets destined for us,

The iseries_veth driver contains a state machine which is used to manage
how connections are setup and neogotiated between LPARs.
If one side of a connection resets for some reason, the two LPARs can get
stuck in a race to re-setup the connection. This can lead to the connection
being declared dead by one or both ends. In practice the connection is
declared dead by one or both ends approximately 8/10 times a connection is
reset, although it is rare for connections to be reset.
(an example here: http://michael.ellerman.id.au/files/misc/veth-trace.html)
The core of the problem is that the end that resets the connection doesn't
wait for the other end to become aware of the reset. So the resetting end
starts setting the connection back up, and then receives a reset from the
other end (which is the response to the initial reset). And so on.
We're severely limited in what we can do to fix this. The protocol between
LPARs is essentially fixed, as we have to interoperate with both OS/400
and old Linux drivers. Which also means we need a fix that only changes the
code on one end.
The only fix I've found given that, is to just blindly sleep for a bit when
resetting the connection, in the hope that the other end will get itself
sorted. Needless to say I'd love it if someone has a better idea.
This does work, I've so far been unable to get it to break, whereas without
the fix a reset of one end will lead to a dead connection ~8/10 times.

The iseries_veth driver has a timer which we use to send acks. When the
connection is reset or stopped we need to delete the timer.
Currently we only call del_timer() when resetting a connection, which means
the timer might run again while the connection is being re-setup. As it turns
out that's ok, because the flags the timer consults have been reset.
It's cleaner though to call del_timer_sync() once we've dropped the lock,
although the timer may still run between us dropping the lock and calling
del_timer_sync(), but as above that's ok.

Currently the iseries_veth driver prints the file name and line number in its
error messages. This isn't very useful for most users, so just print
"iseries_veth: message" instead.
- convert uses of veth_printk() to veth_debug()/veth_error()/veth_info()
- make terminology consistent, ie. always refer to LPAR not lpar
- be consistent about printing return codes as %d not %x
- make format strings fit in 80 columns

Update version and add 4 minor fixes, the last 2 were suggested by
Jeff Garzik:
1. check for a valid ethernet address before setting it
2. zero out bp->regview if init_one encounters an error and unmaps
the IO address. This prevents remove_one from unmapping again.
3. use netif_rx_schedule() instead of hand coding the same.
4. use IRQ_HANDLED and IRQ_NONE.

Remove atomic operations in the fast tx path. Expensive atomic
operations were used to keep track of the number of available tx
descriptors. The new code uses the difference between the consumer
and producer index to determine the number of free tx descriptors.
As suggested by Jeff Garzik, the name of the inline function is
changed to all lower case.

This speeds up link-up time on 5706 SerDes if the link partner does
not autoneg, a rather common scenario in blade servers. Some blade
servers use IPMI for keyboard input and it's important to minimize
link disruptions.
The speedup is achieved by shortening the timer to (HZ / 3) during
the transient period right after initiating a SerDes autoneg. If
autoneg does not complete, parallel detect can be done sooner. After
the transient period is over, the timer goes back to its normal HZ
interval.
As suggested by Jeff Garzik, the timer initialization is moved to
bnx2_init_board() from bnx2_open().
An eeprom bit is also added to allow default forced SerDes speed for
even faster link-up time.

This fixes an rtnl deadlock problem when flush_scheduled_work() is
called from bnx2_close(). In rare cases, linkwatch_event() may be on
the workqueue from a previous close of a different device and it will
try to get the rtnl lock which is already held by dev_close().
The fix is to set a flag if we are in the reset task which is run
from the workqueue. bnx2_close() will loop until the flag is cleared.
As suggested by Jeff Garzik, the loop is changed to call msleep(1)
instead of yield() in the original patch.
flush_scheduled_work() is also moved to bnx2_remove_one() before the
netdev is freed.
